Thursday, Sept. 23

Today in reading we worked on phonics and identified the variety of vowel sounds a single vowel can make.  We used our names and other words to identify these sounds.   We also did read aloud and DEAR reading, as we do every day!
In science we received a jar of caterpillars to go along with our mealworms! They are busy making their cocoons and the kids were very interested in this.  Hopefully, we will have butterflies in no time!

In math we "fed alligators" (as Nick B. put it :) ) when we talked about "greater than" and "less than."  The alligator always eats the bigger number- that is how we remember which way to draw the symbol. Ask your child about this!

Check to make sure your child has the "daily report" today.  I want all the kids to get in the habit of showing you this everyday so you will always know how his/her behavior was that day.

Tomorrow is the first day with the Homework Binder! Keep your eyes peeled for it to come home.
